Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 574: 185. World = Black Hole? _2

Erica said to Comini:

“I’ll send you the scroll by messenger later, and you and Noland Lee can each take one.”

“Alright, Professor,” Comini replied.

Erica’s tone became serious:

“This is the first time wizards will be fighting against the extraterrestrial void forces’ star fleet within the inner cosmos. You must be very careful and protect yourselves. If you really can’t find an opportunity to launch the steel crossbow, I won’t blame you. After all, based on the results of Star Witches fighting against the interstellar fleet in outer space, the odds of the Star Witches winning are very low, only about 11%.”

“That low?” Comini frowned, looking troubled.

Noland Lee was also somewhat taken aback by this number.

A Ten-Ring Pure Light Wizard can suppress a nuclear explosion with the “Ring of Tranquility.”

As an even higher level than a Ten-Ring Wizard, Star Witches should be even stronger. No matter how powerful the star fleet is, can they suppress a nuclear explosion?

In Noland Lee’s impression, they couldn’t.

But why can Ten-Ring Wizards and Star Witches, who can suppress nuclear explosions, not defeat the Star Fleet who can’t suppress nuclear explosions…

“Professor, based on the magic images, these interstellar ships don’t seem particularly powerful, do they?” Noland Lee looked down at the document in his hand, then looked up and asked:

“Why is the Star Witch’s win rate so poor against such enemies?”

Erica hesitated for half a second, then sighed lightly and said:

“Alright, I’ll tell you both a secret. Don’t tell anyone else, as this secret is being vigorously sealed by the Mass Wizard Tombs and numerous Star Witches.”

Seeing the seriousness in the professor’s expression, the lines on Comini’s face tightened, and Noland Lee straightened up a little more.

“The Star Filtering Net is not only a barrier separating the inner cosmos and outer space, but it is also a watershed concerning magical power. Assume that our magical power as wizards is 100 points within the inner cosmos. After passing through the Star Filtering Net and entering outer space, our magical power will be reduced to a maximum of 20 points.”

Comini shuddered, her eyes widened, and her breathing became a bit hurried.

Noland Lee, on the other hand, frowned slightly and pondered the cause.

Erica said in a deep voice:

“If this secret were made public, it would completely extinguish the wizards’ enthusiasm for venturing into outer space. To continuously strengthen the power of Star Witches in outer space, the Mass Wizard Tombs and many Star Witches have no choice but to keep this secret.”

Erica weighed the magic scroll in her hand:

“Let’s leave it at that for now. Just remember, don’t let the secret I just shared with you leak out, otherwise, I won’t be able to protect you.”

Comini recovered from her brief shock. She nodded slightly at Erica and left first.

As Noland Lee was about to leave, Erica approached him and reminded him:

“Don’t tell Denise Green, okay? Promise me. I trust that neither you nor she will betray the secret, but the fewer people know about this kind of secret, the better.”

“Yes, Professor. Don’t worry, I’ll keep my mouth shut.” Noland Lee nodded and disappeared in the indigo fog.

With his consciousness quickly descending back into his body, Noland Lee opened his eyes and saw Denise Green, who was scooping fruit from a can.

She was chewing and suddenly noticed that Noland Lee had opened his eyes. Her cheeks puffed up, hiding a large piece of fruit.

“Hehe…” Denise Green smiled sheepishly, licking her lips and mumbling with the scent of fruit:

“I’m kind of hungry…”

Noland Lee was amused by her appearance.

He stood up and gently poked her puffed-up cheeks with his fingertips:

“Eat slowly. There’s more to eat when you’re done. I brought enough cans for us to eat all the way to the Suman Archipelago.”

“Mmm, are you going out?” Denise Green asked.

“Yeah, I’m going to find Comini. Professor Erica assigned us a task.” Noland Lee said while moving towards the door:

“This task doesn’t require us to participate in any battles, so you don’t need to worry.”

“Alright~”

Noland Lee opened the door and walked out into the corridor, where he met Comini, who was walking towards him.

Comini handed the magic scroll to Noland Lee, then gestured for him to follow:

“Come on, Jarvis. Let’s go up to the upper deck, where there’s a better view, making it more convenient for us to launch the Silent Crossbow Arrows.”

Noland Lee received the magic scroll and immediately cast the Deconstruction Technique.

Wow, it’s awesome.

Noland Lee praised in his heart.

The Silent Steel Crossbow enclosed within the magic scroll was very powerful, reaching an item level of 86. No wonder it had such a long range.

Unfortunately, the Silent Steel Crossbow is a consumable item. After firing 15 accompanying Silent Crossbow Arrows, it would shatter into metallic dust with a loud crack.

Professor Erica had already informed the leading Enforcement Wizard, Paredes, about their plan. He cleared out space by the rear end of the upper deck and let Noland Lee and Comini use it.

After Noland Lee and Comini arrived at the location, they tore open the magic scroll and released the mana on it.

A stream of gray mist, like water, flowed from the scroll and condensed into a Silent Steel Crossbow in Noland Lee’s hands.

This thing was quite heavy and a meter long with a width of over 80 centimeters. If it weren’t for the “Lightweight Pickup” enchantment effect on the steel crossbow, Noland Lee might have struggled to hold it for an extended period.

As for the operation of pulling the bowstring, it was successfully completed with the help of another enchantment effect.
